GREELEY, COLO. — A 23-year-old man who was involved in a crash in northern Colorado that killed two siblings and an Air Force senior airman has been sentenced to two years of supervised probation.

The Greeley Tribune reports Anthony Alacca, of Cheyenne, Wyoming, also was ordered Tuesday to perform 20 hours of community service and take a safe-driving class. He pleaded guilty in January to careless driving resulting in death.

Investigators say Alacca was driving on U.S. 85 early on the morning of Aug. 15 when he failed to negotiate a curve north of Nunn near the Colorado-Wyoming border.

Killed were 21-year-old Michael De La Rosa, 19-year-old Mariah Lynn De La Rosa, both of Cheyenne; and 21-year-old senior airman Michael Gnoato, who was stationed at F.E. Warren Air Force Base near Cheyenne.
